Not like last time….

Well-Known Angler
Slept in a bit as I was out early Friday morning for a big goose egg. But still off the dock before the gray light. Moved around guessing where the peanuts might be this morning. They start popping the surface and I start thinking how to get to them without putting them down. Ok success. Let this stronger than wanted wind get me there. And then I see it. Another boat ripping along with a googan and a net on the front of the boat. And rolling over a bunch of peanuts as they were blinded by the school I was working. Mind you, plenty of schools popping. Will the wind get me there? Definitely going to kill it. Only 4 feet of water!! Tense moment but looks like I might get there. I throw and it has to be the best throw of my season. Looked just like the YouTube guys and it hits the water fully open! I wait patiently and start the retrieve. Success as the other boat comes ripping over to try. They are gone. See ya!

Start fishing by last week’s memory and nothing. Hmmm. Change it up and the fish start coming. Just smaller.

Finished with 12 fish, 2 keeps in some tough conditions of big wind and not the direction I needed. Called quits earlier than normal but still not a bad day.

2 keepers in less than ideal conditions sounds like success to me!
Way to go 👍
